It's Ferrari, you could deliver them a championship on a silver platter and they would threaten to leave because it wasn't a golden platter.Ever since Liberty Media or whoever these losers are got their hands on the league they've been shaking up the rules and annoying the major teams.
Ferrari throwing another tantrum huh.
Even though they have proven to come through everytime the regulations have changed, they still get mad about changes. They were mad when they outlawed v12 engines then v8 engines even the hybrid systems. They still have the upper hand with adaptation. That's why Ferrari is still one of the best.
I think Ferrari needs F1 more than F1 needs Ferrari. Maybe they could be replaced with Porsche in 2021?
Considering the $100m they get over Mercedes shouldn't they have won so much more?

Which is interesting, because if it's any sport they are recently "dominating" it's the GTE Pro category of the WEC. Winners of multiple titles in past 6 years aren't they? But yet Ferrari doesn't even really talk about them.
Ferrari won't leave F1, they just want to balance the deal so that all sides get something from it.
Wouldn't that be a hoot?I think Ferrari needs F1 more than F1 needs Ferrari. Maybe they could be replaced with Porsche in 2021?
What's wrong with the shark fin ? I really like it.Personally I feel the whole Liberty Media takeover and general change in ruling has been beneficial to the world of F1. I think he shake-up in rule changes were inevitable with such a takeover, as the new owners want to put there mark on the sport as they begin to change it for the better now that Ecclestone has stood back. A change was needed.
As ever with F1, such change was always going to be met with disparage and disagreement from the teams and drivers. Granted some of the changes were not the "best" in my opinion (*cough" Halo, *cough* shark-fin...), but not everything is going to go smoothly.
Otherwise these Ferrari threats don't surprise me, sort of come to be expected after all these years really .
I've been following the Ferrari F1 team since I could speak, thanks to my dad. I can't imagine F1 without them and I'll probably stop watching it all together if they leave. For me there is no F1 without Ferrari.
